Not my favorite Cube album, although his dissent would be remarkable with and after his next release. While there are high points here and the actual raps (misogyny and homophobia aside) are solid. However, the g-funk is creeping in and while it accentuates the fun of a track like It Was a Good Day…. It undermines the anger of his takes regarding a post riots LA. The venom of Death Certificate and Amerikkka was supported by Sir Jinx and the Bomb Swuad adding a soundtrack that met the lyrical content, here the swing towards a sound more fun for the augmented mind counteracts the lyrical content. As a result what could have been greats…. Doesn’t quite work.
